A few months ago Carson was having really bad dreams at night. So needless to say, Jonathan and I took turns sleeping with him at night. That's right, now he will not go to sleep without one of us in his bed. Great! another habit we created and now have to break-

Then off to Orlando for Disney and my all time favorite Islands of Adventure. My parents and brother are meeting us at Disney. We are not telling Carson as we want him to be surprised ;) We are praying for beautiful warm weather while we are there- Please bring on the sun and sunscreen (of-course).

Well, we took Carson to CHOP on Tuesday for his on going ear infections. As we thought, they would like Carson to have tubes in his ears. I have mixed emotions about the procedure however I know its needed. But when? We are thinking about the beginning of February-

Carson will be starting a new pre-k christian school in January. He is not aware of the change yet as he hearts his primary teacher. The school which he will be attending has 6 students in the pre-k class. He will have to wear a uniform along with being in class by 8:10am every morning. He will attend 2 full days and 3 1/2 days. The school offers pre-k thru 12th... It's a rather small private school however they have a solid foundation.

Tonight, Carson was playing with his Lego's and I heard him talking really loud..Carson: Dear God PLEASE help Mommy rip her nose.Me: What rip my nose, Carson?Carson: Yea, when you have a tissue and your ripping your nose.Me: wiping my nose, Carson?!Carson: Dear God PLEASE help Mommy wipe her nose because she does not know how-

Carson is getting so rough with other boys. He wants to wrestle, hit and call them names for "no reason". I am truly hoping this is another phase of toddler-hood. Time outs do not work, taking away his Lego's works for the first few hours and taking away the t.v. is a joke...etc....HELP!

Last Saturday Jonathan, Shauna, Holly and I went to NYC for the day. We had a full day of taxi rides, subways, busy stores with long lines, trendy restruants and seeing the off broad way show Stomp. It was rather cold and crowded however there were many laughs and funny stories. All and all it was another wonderful trip to the big apple.

Best (my sister) watched Carson while we enjoyed our trip. Best and Carson also had a fun day as they went shopping and had dinner with Santa. Carson is still talking about his day with Best.
